[edit] Family tree

I just created a family tree using the family tree templates. It struck me that this article is not much more than a family tree so it seemed appropriate. There are a few items that need resolved before we can put it in the article I went ahead and put it in:

1. Two members of the tree-Audry Walton and Christy Walton need maiden names since the marriage relationship is show on the tree the convention is to list maiden names.
2. We could add more birth dates and such but I don't think its 100% necessary like the first one is but I only put what was already available on wikipedia.

Also most of the less notable members of the family only have one paragraph articles. Elizabeth Paige Laurie is actually a redirect to her mothers article where she is discussed briefly. We may consider merging some of the less notable members into this article where I think we have a good chance of writing something more cohesive.

I added "float: left" to the style on the template to allow test to wrap, I am not sure how to add the cell padding/spacing just to the outer most border to keep text from going right up against it, I will add an empty cell though to fix it. Or we can ditch that all together there really is not sufficient text in the article at the moment to need it. Dalf | Talk

[edit] Net Worth.

Don't want to be picky here, but right after the article says 'richest family in the world', it should probably state how rich they are.Babieca 02:00, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tagged as "lacking sources"

Aren't the sources "imbedded"? In other words, if you click on any notable member of the family, it will tell you in that article who the immediate relations are (and a source there would be important).Ekem 15:34, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding marriages

I couldnt find maiden names for Audrey or Christy Walton. Also, I removed the note about audrey and bud's divorce, I thought a divorce date under her name on the tree would be more appropriate, but couldnt find one. can anyone provide these details with references? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Popefauvexxiii (talk • contribs) 05:18, 9 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] other Waltons?

Did any of the fortune go to Sam's cousins? Does anyone know if there is a poor Walton who is related? That would be interesting. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.206.165.48 (talk) 03:08, 6 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Vandalism

I reverted a large body of text that was added just recently which portrayed the Walton family as a menace to society that ought to be extinguished. 70.251.126.204 (talk) 13:24, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
